Giordana Cycling can absolutely be considered a stalwart in the cycling apparel world. By combining Italian style, craftsmanship, and knowledge honed from industry use and real-world application, Giordana makes some of our favorite apparel. Their ability to push the envelope in design doesn’t just stay at the top of their line, but it trickles down to everything they make. We liked their apparel so much that we’ve worked with them on the Contender Giordana Women’s Vero Pro Shorts.

The Contender Giordana Women’s Vero Pro Shorts are based off of the Giordana Women’s Vero Pro Short, featuring the same tech, Cirro chamois with Aloe Vera infusion, and fit. We dig the non-restrictive fit, supportive fabrics, and a gentle, elastic leg grippers. The right leg cuff feature subtle Contender rubber logo treatment with small silicone grippers. The Cirro chamois features aloe-infused fibers and offers good comfort and durability over long rides. We’ve always appreciated the quality and attention to detail of the shorts, and the price at which Giordana brings this piece is even more impressive.
